I got a used car last year from Carmax but the only thing I need that it didnt come with was a car lighter, the hole is there and the wires inside but like I said no lighter. Im going on a trip in a couple days and I need it for my portable dvd player. Is there anywhere I can find one...Ive tried surfing the web for one but I cant seem to find one anyone have any ideas? I dont have time to order one off the net...so if anyone has any ideas on stores I can go to please please let me know. Thanx

Any auto parts store sells universal lighter kits. Advance Auto, Autozone, Napa, Car Quest and so on!

There should probably be a Pep Boys, AutoWorld, Auto Zone or NAPA parts store somewhere near you. Any one of those stores can fix you up (they may even install it if you ask real nice and polite!).
WalMart may also carry a replacement socket for the missing lighter.
By the bye, better make sure the fuse is intact before you go fiddling around inside the dash; it may have been removed in order to prevent short circuits, since the wire is still in place.

Several options are available. Wal Mart, Radio Shack, Pep Boys, Auto Zone, and almost all auto parts stores sell a generic cig lighter socket. Just make sure you fuse it for protection. Under dash fires are no fun. Good Luck - Gary
